Tibetan Book of the Dead: Liberation Through Understanding in the Between
The most accessible and informative version of the Buddhist classic available in English, with instruction in meditation, illuminating commentary, and guidance in the practical use of the prayers
The so-called "Tibetan Book of the Dead" has been renowned for centuries as a cornerstone of Buddhist wisdom and religious thought. More recently, it has become highly influential in the Western world for its psychological insights into the processes of death and dying--and what they can teach us about the ways we live our lives. It has also been found to be helpful in the grieving process by people who have recently lost their loved ones. Composed in the eighth century C.E., it is intended to prepare the soul for the trials and transformations of the afterworld. Its profound message is that the art of dying is as important as the art of living. Drawing on Tibetan spiritual traditions, it shows us the workings of the mind in its various manifestations--terrifying and comforting, wrathful and beautiful--which appear more clearly after death in the consciousness of the deceased. By recognizing these manifestations, we can attain a state of enlightenment, both in this existence and in the existence to come. This authoritative translation preserves the form and spirit of the original and was prepared especially for Western readers by Robert A. F. Thurman, one of the most prominent Tibetan scholars in America and a close associate of His Holiness the Dalai Lama's.Sold out -

Sold outThe Complete Stories
Winner of the National Book Award
The publication of this extraordinary volume firmly established Flannery O'Connor's monumental contribution to American fiction. There are thirty-one stories here in all, including twelve that do not appear in the only two story collections O'Connor put together in her short lifetime--Everything That Rises Must Converge and A Good Man Is Hard to Find. O'Connor published her first story, "The Geranium," in 1946, while she was working on her master's degree at the University of Iowa. Arranged chronologically, this collection shows that her last story, "Judgement Day"--sent to her publisher shortly before her death--is a brilliantly rewritten and transfigured version of "The Geranium." Taken together, these stories reveal a lively, penetrating talent that has given us some of the most powerful and disturbing fiction of the twentieth century. Also included is an introduction by O'Connor's longtime editor and friend, Robert Giroux.Sold out -

Propagandopolis: A Century of Propaganda from Around the World
A trove of 20th- and 21st-century propaganda imagery used by regimes around the world, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe and beyond
Do you know what propaganda looks like? A mural showing Saddam Hussein on horseback. A poster featuring Chinese climbers carrying a bust of Mao to the summit of Mount Everest. A film of North Korea's Kim Jong Un parading an intercontinental ballistic missile. A Pakistani newspaper advertisement calling for "Jehad" [sic]. A soldier firing condoms from his gun in a Ugandan AIDS awareness and prevention campaign. A painting depicting American and Soviet crew members of the 1976 Apollo-Soyuz mission riding horseback across the heavens above earth, their respective flags held aloft.
Juxtaposing a wide range of material originating from conflicting ideologies, Propagadopolis presents a wealth of shocking, unusual and visually arresting images. Spanning an array of regions worldwide (with a particular focus on the US and the USSR) and ranging from the early 20th century to the present, the selected materials demonstrate how propaganda has been wielded to evoke emotions, rally support or instill fear. Most of all, propaganda aims to leave an indelible mark on the collective consciousness. Extended captions explain the fascinating stories behind this material, contextualizing the strategies used by governments, agencies and individuals seeking to influence, deceive and demoralize the public through the use of propaganda. Containing many previously unpublished examples and with an enlightening introduction from Robert Peckham, author of Fear: An Alternative History of the World (2023), Propagandopolis is an essential visual guide to the enduring potency of the most pervasive, manipulative and persuasive images of our time.Sold out -

Sold outSun Dog: A Novel of Native America
A tale of sorcery, witchcraft, and romance set in the heart of Native America--where myth and truth collide, and the line between savior and monster begins to blur. When a Seneca Iroquois town on Lake Ontario is beset by an evil spirit, its female chieftain, Walking Turtle, calls upon seven shamans and seven warriors from neighboring tribes to free her people from the demon. Meanwhile, in an isolated village to the north, a young woman named Found by the River is accused of witchcraft. She and her protector, Willow, face certain death unless they can escape their tormentors. Into this scenario comes Sun Dog, a charismatic magician leading a band of refugees fleeing the collapse of their civilization 800 miles to the south. Sun Dog and his people are survivors of mighty Coosa, a realm destroyed by the army of Spanish conquistador, Hernan de Soto. Sun Dog vows to rid the Senecas of their demon, while wrestling with a sinister force of his own. He alone can decide the fate of those condemned as witches. Brimming with unforgettable characters and grounded in history, "The Sun Dog" is the follow-up to "The Wolf and The Willow", reintroducing Willow and Wolf in an ongoing saga set in Native America during the tumultuous "Lost Century" of the 1500s.
